Electrical Resistivity and Thermal Conductivity of Nine Selected AISI stainless Steels

Abstract

This technical report reviews the available experimental data and information on the electrical resistivity and thermal conductivity of nine selected AISI stainless steels and presents the recommended values from near absolute zero (1 K) to above the melting point of the stainless steels (into the molten state). The nine selected stainless steels are AISI 303, 304, 304L, 316, 317, 321, 347, 410, and 430. The recommended values are generated as a result of critical evaluation, analysis, and synthesis of the available data and information. Data are synthesized.
